Chapter 335: Planned War (1)
For prehistoric humans, war was always inevitable. There are so many factors that induce wars www.biquge.info they often don't know why they happened and why they ended. Intrigues and tricks have emerged, but many times it's just the user's intuition. They have not been systematically trained in their brains and the simple stories under the campfire, and it is always difficult to restore the whole picture of a thing, so they always like to blame some things they don't know on gods and demons, and the whole picture of intrigue and intrigue will always be hidden under these mysterious fogs, and become something difficult to touch in people's hearts.
There is no understanding of intrigue and intrigues, and the war is still a savage collision after worshipping the gods, which on the other hand makes many people think that as long as they bring enough men to surpass the other side, they are not afraid of war.
That's what the bearded man thinks. Just after the two full moons, they had just harvested the abundant millet that had grown on the land burned last year, and then he brought thousands of strong men from several surrounding tribes to the old village of the Yiren.
There was an agreement beforehand. This time it's not a discussion, it's a possession. If they don't agree with each other, they will kill all the men and seize the women.
The three clans were a tribe before. Legend has it that a long time ago, the Yanren tribe was so big that it was divided into three tribes, but the three tribes believed in the same fish god, so the three tribes were also like a family. They had three chieftains, but only one witch.
This time they occupied the tribe of the Yiren, and the three tribes met together again, and let their witches live in the Yiren stockade. The rest of the tribe picks up the move-in. The original three settlements will also be retained for their original cultivation. They even decided to let the concubines who participated in the persecution also live in the Yiren village, and the concubines also joined their tribe, and the witch and the leader were re-elected. In this case, cooperative communes are about to appear.
The reason why so many people are able to form a tribe is because of the two years of bumper harvests of millet in a row, so that their dependence on food is no longer mainly fishing and hunting. Some of the leaders of their tribe now do not have to go out to work, and they can enjoy their own food. Because of this change, some people even believe in one more god, that is, the divine bird.
Because these are all brought by the Yi people.
The Yi people were a very popular tribe before. Their young and strong migrated from place to place, leaving a few old and weak in the tribe, so they did not occupy much territory and posed little threat to other tribes. Moreover, the beautiful and tall Yi people, who are not married, are the objects of welcome of many surrounding tribes. The men of the surrounding tribes like the women of the Yi people, and the women of the surrounding tribes also like the men of the Yi people. For such a tribe, everyone naturally has no malicious intent.
But the changes brought by the habitat to the Yi people in the past few years have slowly changed this situation.
The various advanced production tools brought by Qi and others from the River tribe made their food abundant, and they could get enough food without having to migrate with the animals. The Yi people went fishing and hunting, intensifying conflicts with surrounding tribes. The houses built and the pottery they made improved their lives, but they also became the object of jealousy of the surrounding tribes. And the legend that the Yi people are ready to communicate with each other internally, which makes many people from the surrounding tribes dissatisfied.
An open and indisputable tribe that has become closed and wealthy and slowly becomes powerful, which touches the nerves of many people. They began to humiliate the Yi people, and out of instinct to probe, they found that the Yi people were still patient, and then persecuted. The invasion of the Yi people's stockade is only the beginning, and in their consciousness, the Yi people had better resist, so that those legendary indestructible iron tools, mountains of pottery, will become their wealth.
Of course, if the Yi people are willing to back down, that's good. If the Yi people retreat, they will definitely not be able to bring much with them, and those ceramic houses are still a lot of wealth. Before they experienced it, they probably wouldn't have thought that even if they retreated, the house could be burned down and the pottery could be broken.
And if Wang Chuan hadn't appeared, the situation should not be as it is now. Probably two months ago, during the persecution, the Yi people rose up and resisted, and then both were defeated, and the Yi people probably had no choice but to retreat or merge into other tribes.
Of course, the Yi people are not without a chance to fight back, burning the land for a few years will exhaust the fertility of the surface of the land, and after a few years, even if there is no flood in the Taihe River, the Yan people will not be able to get food in this way of farming, and they will naturally decline. That's when it was an opportunity to raze people.
But when Wang Chuan came, of course, the result was different.
Autumn is high and cool, and the grass is yellow. The bearded man of the Yan people approached the village of the Yi people with a murderous spirit, and when he got closer, he found that the millet on the ground had also been harvested, and the millet poles and grass were scattered everywhere, but the village of the Yi people was quiet, and there was no one. The gate of the village was not closed, and there were a lot of dry grass and dry firewood scattered in the village, and a few hares that did not know where they came from were grazing on the grass, and when they saw people coming, they quickly jumped into the bushes and disappeared.
"All gone?" Someone asked curiously.
The bearded man looked at this quiet village, and felt a little disappointed for no reason, and couldn't help but be a little embarrassed and angry: "Nonsense, of course it's all gone, who is not afraid of us?" ”
He had succeeded in the last negotiation with Heqi, gained great prestige among the Yan and the Hui people, and this time several tribes merged, and he had the best hope of becoming the leader of this large tribe. In his opinion, this leader came a little lightly, and some people were not convinced, but he still hoped for a bloody battle. The men of the Yi people were welcomed by the women of the surrounding tribes, which was undoubtedly the most unbearable for men, and being able to kill them was almost the most desirable thing for him and his men. In this way, they will also be able to enjoy the women of the Yi people first.
A capable woman is always the target of a man's conquest. After the last time the bearded man negotiated with Qi, he never forgot his posture. Before arriving today, he was still wondering how he could conquer this untamable woman if he resisted.
It's a pity that Yiren ran away. It made him feel like a punch in the air, and made him hold his breath uncomfortably.
This result undoubtedly surprised everyone who came. In their opinion, even if the Yiren were to leave, the dispute would last at least a day or two, and bloodshed and fighting were inevitable. But the Yiren just have to go? How easy did this victory come by? The crowd was stunned for a moment, but soon cheered, and everyone ran into it in a frenzy, scrambling to seize the houses.
The bearded man was pushed to the side of the road, scolded a few times in dissatisfaction, glanced at the stockade, and vaguely felt that something seemed wrong, but now that the Yiren had disappeared, he didn't go to his heart. Only the largest rooms were left behind, and a few cronies went to the back to pick up the witch.
A sturdy old man was brought into the stockade, and almost everyone entered the stockade. The bearded man stepped on the sun-dried pole grass on the ground and walked inside, shouting as he went, "Bring the pottery out and show it to the witch." Then see if there are any fallen iron weapons, and take out the bow and crossbow, don't swallow it privately, if you find it, beware that the witch will not spare you. ”
"Boom!" In response to the beard, there were two crumbling smokes.
"What's going on?" The bearded man asked.
"It looks like the house has collapsed."
Yiren's house is the strongest, how could it fall? The bearded man and others wondered. At this moment, there was a cry outside the stockade, and the gate where everyone had come in was rushed outside and closed. Torches were thrown from outside the wall, igniting the hay and wood on the ground, and long arrows tied to torches shot into the middle of the wall, setting fire to the houses and bushes of the wall.
Autumn is dry, there is no smoke and no fire, and all kinds of plants and trees are lit at a point. There were a lot of shrubs and weeds growing in Yiren's village, and the poles and grass laid behind were dry firewood, and suddenly the fire was everywhere, and the fire dragon spread. The inside of the stockade soon became a sea of fire and smoke, and the burning women panicked, and the wolves rushed to the pigs.
